Rock the trail, a way to get people to gather around your SEMA booth is to let them compete with remote controlling a 4 wheel drive truck

just the nose of a semi, maybe a Kenworth, in the booth, the rest of the truck is a poster on the wall

Acura supercar from the Avengers movie, Tony Stark / Iron Man's super car
0 comments Posted by Unknown at 11:44 PMabove 2 images from http://www.caughtonset.com/robert-downey-jr-mark-ruffalo-avengers/ which has incredible coverage of movie stars during the movie making process
below 2 photos I took at SEMA 2012
below infographic is from http://collider.com/avengers-movie-tony-stark-car-images/140630/ because the Sundance Film Festival was a location for marketing of the Avengers movie, and the car and the info were found by Collider.com who lists the info in text on the previous link, instead of you trying to read all the super spy/ high tech gadgets of the below photo. Some of the gizmos are a palm-scan ID steering wheel, enviro-clone projected hologram of surroundings, self-detonating recon drone, night-vision HUD windshield etc etc . Good closeups of the car at the Collider link as well
Similar thoughts about the Iron Man cars had me look to see if they are online somewhere, and I found that About.com has a full listing and some information about the cars in Tony Starks garage. Like the 32 roadster is actually Jon Favreau's. http://exoticcars.about.com/od/famousfilmcars/tp/IronMan2.htm who compared the cars in the garage in Iron Man one to Iron Man 2 and let us know that the Saleen and the Tesla didn't make it to the second movie.
want a '69 Mustang, (GT, Boss 302, Shelby) but without 43 years of age and problems? A new 2012 or 13 in all ways but looks, Retro Built is making cool looking 1969's from brand new Mustangs, and Carroll Shelby recommends them!
0 comments Posted by Unknown at 9:45 PMThe retro-coupe features power-operated sport buckets with lumbar support, ice-cold air conditioning, six airbags and a full factory warranty. It also comes with a new fuel-injected 5.0-liter with 420 horsepower.
something to like about the Retro Built that the originals didn't have? Airbags, cupholders, and awesome stereos
Retrobuilt's 1969 Fastback is one slick, no-compromise muscle car. Its fit and finish appeared top-notch, and everything on the vehicle passed close scrutiny (especially to the countless onlookers in the parking lot who were magnetically drawn to the Fastback when we stopped to chat). In terms of pricing, the full Retrobuilt treatment costs about $30,000 above and beyond the price of the donor vehicle – a figure much easier to swallow if you consider the work involved. above 2 composite images and paragraphs from http://www.autoblog.com/2012/11/30/retrobuilt-1969-mustang-fastback-first-drive-review/
http://www.retrobuilt.com/ is their website. You won't learn everything on their site, some things I picked up from talking to the guys is that occasionally they get lucky when finding source material cars... you know, the new car under the cool exterior. Hail damaged cars are perfect to start with. New on the dealership lots, but unsellable by factory delaerships. However, all the hail damage is only to the new car design you don't like anyway!
